house, and the two started off together,
Mr. Fye being apparently in good
spirits and physical condition. The
two did not gn far until Mr Fye
complained of severe pains on his
breast He sat down, and in a few

Things are never quite as bad as
they might have been, This was es-
pecially the case with M. N. Miller,
| tenant on the Grove farm, along Bink-
ing Creek, butchering day. A
peculiar roaring was heard, aud when
the attention of Mr, Miller was called
to what was supposed to be the roaring

something wrong, and on looking over
